In his first visit to San Diego, cellist Santiago Cañón-Valencia performs an exciting and varied solo program, ranging from Bach’s Second Suite to works from his latest album, Ascenso (Sono Luminus), which includes original compositions and arrangements by the cellist himself.

The Strad magazine describes him in performance as “technically flawless [and] totally under the skin of the composers’ idioms.”PROGRAM (subject to change):
Cello Suite No. 2 in D Minor, BWV 1008, Johann Sebastian Bach
